YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

Dave Rubin of “The Rubin Report” talks to Clay Travis about building OutKick during the early days of independent media; the evolution of sports journalism before and after 2015; how podcasting shifted from audio to YouTube dominance; why creating a business while raising kids fueled his drive; how learning ad sales, marketing, and audience engagement made him a better commentator; the contrast between building versus maintaining success; the impact of Trump’s 2016 win on his sense of urgency; and how real-world experience matters more than MBAs in media; and much more.
